I think a U.S. veteran peacefully exercising his Constitutional rights in Washington DC is perfectly acceptable—good, even—and he shouldn't be arrested or otherwise punished by the state for doing that. No one should. Sorry to get so partisan, but that's how I feel.

Watch as this LAPD cop takes deliberate aim at an Australian reporter, then shoots her at close range. I would fire the police chief over this. Inexcusable thuggery.

It makes me so unbelievably sad how much progress on mRNA vaccines is going to be delayed. Arguably the most impactful applied biochemistry breakthrough since CRISPR-Cas9 and the full benefits are going to end up unnecessarily delayed for a decade
